about

For Adam Schlesinger

lyrics

So here's my pitch
For something you forgot to say
About a girl named Abigail
From Orangeburg or Allendale
In her youth
She wrote a lot of film screenplays
Foresaw a glittering career
Now she works at Sears

The PA's really nothing special
The aircon's running much too slow
I'm singing louder than everyone
You smile at the harmonica solo
We're alive at the Scala tonight
We're alive at the Scala tonight

It's all messed up
This can't be how it ends
I thought you'd make it back alive
On that endless I95
It's so weird
They put you in the Daily Mail
I'm not the only one who feels bad
Tom Hanks is sad

The PA's really nothing special
The aircon's running much too slow
I'm singing louder than everyone
You smile at the harmonica solo
We're alive at the Scala tonight
We're alive at the Scala tonight
We're alive at the Scala tonight

An orchestrated stage invasion
That guy is looking at his phone
He's gonna be kicked off you'll see
I bet he goes home alone
The PA's really nothing special
The aircon's running much too slow
I'm singing louder than everyone
You smile at the harmonica solo
We're alive at the Scala tonight
We're alive at the Scala tonight
We're alive at the Scala tonight

Tim Bick Brighton, UK

Reversing into the twenty first century with one eye on the rearview mirror and the other fixed on 1973. And he's not a very careful driver either.
